“…In a very recent study (van Dooren et al, 2019), emissions of ammonia and greenhouse gases were measured in 3 commercial farms and in 1 experimental farm. The ammonia emissions per cow in CBP were 30% lower than in conventional FS with a slatted floor.…”

Compost-bedded pack barns (CBP) are receiving increasing attention as a housing system for dairy cows that has potential to improve animal welfare. This article reviews current scientific knowledge about CBP with the aim of providing a comprehensive tool for producers and researchers using this housing system. In CBP, cows are provided with an open bedded pack area rather than the individual stalls and concrete alleys found in freestall systems. The bedded pack, a mixture of organic bedding and cattle excreta, is cultivated frequently (1-3 times per day) to incorporate fresh manure and air into the pack, thus promoting an aerobic composting process. To function well, CBP generally require a large area per cow. Optimal animal densities over the bedded area range from 7.4 to more than 15 m 2 /cow depending on several factors, including climate, bedding, pack management, and cow characteristics. Studies have indicated that CBP, compared with conventional systems such as freestall barns, have the potential to improve the welfare of dairy cows. In particular, the main reported benefits include improved comfort during resting, better foot and leg health, and more natural animal behavior. Research has also indicated that adequate udder health can be achieved in CBP. However, because the bedded pack has been shown to contain high bacterial concentrations, proper management is essential to maintain adequate cow cleanliness and reduce the risk of mastitis. Controlling pack moisture is consistently indicated as the most important issue with CBP. Especially under cold and humid weather conditions, large amounts of bedding may be necessary to keep the pack adequately dry and comfortable for the cows. Nevertheless, the improvements in cow health may offset the higher costs of bedding.

“…The research was done in WUR showed that wood chips for composting are better than composted manure in terms of animal welfare and emissions from the barn. However, emission of N2O from bedded pack barns was higher compared to free stall barns (Van Dooren et al, 2019b). Ammonia emission was reduced by 31% but methane emission increased by 34% and emissions of nitrous oxide were 14 times higher than a reference slurry-based housing system (van Dooren et al, 2019a;Van Dooren et al, 2019b).…”

De financiële sector kan en wil een rol spelen in het verlagen van de emissie van broeikasgassen in de agro-sectoren. Rabobank heeft opdracht gegeven voor een haalbaarheidsstudie naar drie kernpunten van een gezamenlijke benadering voor de internationale financiële sector: (1) methodologie voor vaststellen van doelen voor reductie van broeikasgasemissies; (2) het schatten van huidige emissies om monitoring mogelijk te maken en (3) het identificeren van opties om emissies broeikasgassen te reduceren. Dit rapport geeft een overzicht van de beschikbare literatuur rond deze punten. Een hoofdconclusie van het rapport is om waar mogelijk af te stemmen met sectorale of nationale doelen en programma's.The financial sector can and wants to play an important role in contributing to the reduction of GHG emissions in agro-sectors. Rabobank commissioned a feasibility study to assess the possibilities and challenges for what is seen as three key-elements of a joint approach for the international financial sector: (1) methodologies for setting GHG emission targets; (2) estimation of current emissions for monitoring purposes; and (3) identification of mitigation options. This report gives an overview of available literature on these elements. A main conclusion of the report is to align where possible with sectoral or national GHG targets and tools of programmes.
